Summary: Syncopal espisodes x 2 16 yo patient received his Covid-19 vaccine and as he was going to sit down in observation, he leaned on his mom and passed out. His mother gently lowered him to the ground (@ 1804). Patient's mother stated he just passed out and that this was his first injection ever in his life. Patient was immediately assessed by multiple nurses. Patient did not fall or hit his head or injure any part of his body. Patient took less than 60 seconds to respond to verbal commands and comprehend what had happened. Patient's legs were immediately raised and vital signs were obtained. He was diaphoretic and pale but both were dissapating. Patient denied difficulty breathing, pain, discomfort. Patient was moved to a reclined chair. Patient and family at side (mother and father) agreed to be monitored. At 1828, Patient complained of feeling "a star" on the left side of his chest. Patient was unable to describe this further. I asked if he was feeling anxious and he said yes. I instructed patient to take several deep breaths in through his nose and out through his mouth. After doing this 3 times, patient stated he did not feel anything funny in his chest anymore. At 1835, while still seated in a reclined chair, patient passed out again. He was pale and diaphoretic. A few team members saw him jerk/twitch and it was questionable if he was having a seizure. The jerking did not last but a few seconds. 911 was called @ 1826. Patient was transferred to a wheelchair and put in the ambulance @ 1841. Vitals were obtained throughout and charted. Pulse ox saturation levels were not below 96%. Immediately after the patient passed out the second time, his pulse was measured at 38 bpm and his lips displayed slight cyanosis. His pulse quickly rose to 52 bpm, within less than 10 seconds. One minute later his pulse was up to 68 bpm.

Patient was nervous upon receipt of vaccine. It was an unscheduled (expiring) dose. Per parent, he had fallen asleep outside vaccine room and they had to wake him up to get vaccine. I gave immunization and asked him to stay for 15 minutes afterwards. His Mom ran to consult window to notify staff patient was passing out. I was sanitizing vaccine room so I immediately ran to him and his Dad and I caught him as he was slumping over. He was shaking really hard, weak, and clammy. He was coherent b/c I asked him his name but did not have clear recollection of timing of vaccine. He was very pale in color. His Mom grabbed him a Gatorade and he seemed very thirsty as he was drinking. He mentioned he felt dizzy and that both arms were hurting and the arm I gave vaccine in felt like he had sweat dripping off it. (I felt his arm and it did not). I grabbed an instant cold pack and placed on his neck to help cool him off. His color returned over the 30 minutes. I asked parents if they wanted me to call ambulance but they wanted to wait and see how he responded. He looked at his iPhone data and his heart rate had spiked. Unclear if right before vaccine or right after but I believe he mentioned it went up to 120 when Mom said his normal resting heart rate was 60. He ate some gold fish and seemed to perk up and have a few funny conversations showing his personality. I explained to him very important to let parents know if he experienced any other side effects after leaving. He was able to stand up and walk out of RX with parents.

Patient's mother states physicians think it's triggered by anxiety and not a true seizure, so MRI or tests was not needed. Doctor recommended patient to come back if it happens again. With the information provided I used professional judgement and was on high alert with the patient. After administrating the vaccine to the patient, I monitored patient's vitals carefully. Patient was stable and I walked with him to his seat near the wall and left him with his family. About a few minutes later the mother told me to come to her aid. Patient had a 1 time continuous seizure for about 30 seconds-1minute. After regaining consciousness the patient said he did not remember getting the vaccine. Patient's mother was very concerned and under control and did not overreact to the situation. Also, I promptly relayed to (pharmacist) to call 911 and he called a member of management. While pharmacist was on the phone with 911 the patient regained consciousness. I monitored patient's vitals while I waited for a member of store management. Store management took a little bit longer to respond (5-10 minutes) but arrived to document the whole incident. About 30 minutes after the incident patient's vitals were stable and the ambulance was not needed and the family took him to the hospital to get monitored. Patient rode the electric wheelchair was escorted out by store management to the car.

He then stated that he was hot and hungry and was given water (from me) and Gatorade from his mother at his request. It was not long after that that the patient fully recovered and was back to normal. I had them stay and observed him for at least 40 minutes just to make sure that he was ok.

I had a 16 year old with his mother come in for a covid shot. Got all the info then headed over the shot room where he was waiting. Looked as nervous as any other kid. His mother was close by watching. I usually carry a conversation with the kids asking them questions as I get ready and give them the shot. I was successful in giving him a shot. Told them to wait 15 minutes before they leave. Got a knock on the door from the mother only to find the kid sprawled out on the floor which alarmed me. The mother said he was light headed. I talked to him he said he felt dizzy and his head was spinning. I asked if he needed some water which he said yes. I went back after fetching the water and suggested he stay there and that I would check on him in 5 minutes. Went back and he was sitting on the chair with his mother next to him. Mother said he has a phobia of needles. Mother was thankful I was checking up on him. He and his mother walked away 5 minutes later.

After my son received his 2nd Dose of the Pfizer on the scheduled date at approx.10:45 am, we went home and were just relaxing and at approx 1:54 pm. My son in a panic yelled for me to come into the bathroom and he showed me his urine and it was bright red with clots (Gross Hematuria). I know the time because as soon as I saw it I took a picture (of which I still have on my phone). I proceeded to access how he was feeling and after he said he felt okay just scared-no pain or anything, I called his Pediatrician whose office instructed me to take him to the ER and that is what I did. He was not rough housing, there was no trauma and again no pain. This has never happened before.

Shot given around 1125 am. Pt and pt's mother went to sit in front of pharmacy. At around 1135, pt fell out of chair, sounded/looked like he may have hit his head on blood pressure machine that he was sitting near. We thought he had fainted. Pt woke within 10 or so seconds after fall and was confused. Said his head didn't hurt. His skin did lose it's color and he was looking "white as a sheet". We had pt lie on floor and elevated his feet. After a few minutes he was feeling better and was able to sit in a chair. Pt and his mom left the pharmacy area about 15-20 minutes after pt fainted. Upon looking at video of the event, it appears that before the patient fell out of his chair that his right arm raises up and his elbow is bent in a very stiff way. A split second later his whole body appears to stiffen and bend to the left, then he falls out of the chair and is lying on the floor. When on the floor, his legs appear to be fairly stiff as well. This whole episode seems to last about 10 seconds or less. The video makes it look more like a seizure than a case of syncope.

Pt was seen at ED on5/8 for L sided weakness in the setting of a headache. Pt?s mother reports that these symptoms began 2 days after receiving second dose of Pfizer COVID-19 vaccination in R deltoid. She says that on 5/6, pt complained of L arm weakness during cooking class at school, which was followed by a mild L sided headache later in the day. Symptoms resolved without intervention but recurred on 5/8 with associated L sided facial droop, slurred speech, L arm spasms, and L foot drag. Pt was seen at ED for this and had a HA (5/10 in severity) at that time -- workup was unremarkable with a normal head CT, laboratory workup, and resolution of symptoms. Pediatric Neurology evaluated the pt, deemed no further workup necessary, and advised outpatient follow up. Pt presented again to the ED on 5/10 with concern for full tonic/clonic seizure, witnessed by pt?s mother. Mother reports that she heard pt fall and went upstairs to find pt seizing on his bed -- says that pt had shaking of bilateral upper extremities (in flexed position close to chest) and symmetric lower extremity shaking; eyes were closed without clear focality or eye deviation. Also some drooling, though no incontinence or tongue biting. Episode lasted for approximately 2 minutes; pt was confused and did not recall what happened immediately afterwards but improved within the next 8 minutes. He was taken to the ED by EMS. By the time he arrived in the ED, he had left sided weakness again. He was given Keppra 1g, placed on EEG, and was admitted. EEG overnight was read "normal" and additional workup was unremarkable. Pt had MRI brain completed showing cortical abnormalities in the R parietal lobe, suspected to be related to recent seizure. MRA showed patent intracranial cerebral vasculature. MRV showed no evidence of dural venous sinus thrombosis. Weakness resolved by the morning and pt was back to baseline on morning of 5/11/21. However, around 9 AM, L sided weakness (face, arm>leg) with associated headache recurred. Mom says that this event was captured on EEG. He was then transferred to our facility. He was placed on pEEG and had repeat labs, imaging completed. Pt did have L sided facial droop, L arm weakness, and slurred speech on arrival, but this resolved within 24 hours. Pt had one additional episode of "wave" of L sided weakness including L sided facial droop and slurred speech at one other time during the hospitalization, but no additional seizure like activity. He was discharged on 5/14 with a normal neuro exam-- some labs (including labs of Rheum and Id workup were pending at time of discharge.) Primary and consulting teams elected to forgo steroids but reconsider should symptoms worsen or return. Pt was readmitted on 5/16-- had an episode of expressive aphasia + headache while at a social gathering; states that he became overwhelmed by the noise. No additional seizure like activity.

The patient is negative for COVID test and chest x-ray on 21May2021 and he has had multiple tests done. The patient went to his primary care provider on 25May2021 (yesterday from the time off reporting) and the reporter mentioned that maybe can they look at this as being a side effect from the vaccine.

My son received his first vaccine dose in his left arm on Friday April 9 at 8:45 am. By Sunday when he woke up, he noticed a walnut sized lump on his left clavicle. It felt unusual and moved on the bone every time he turned his head or moved his arm. There was no redness or fever and it felt hard. It was still there on Monday morning (April 12) so we called his primary care doctor which is where he received the vaccine. The doctor felt it could be a cyst or swollen lymph node and is sending him to a general surgeon next week for further evaluation. The doctor was uncertain if the lump was directly related to the vaccination. Other than acne, patient has no other preexisting conditions. He did have COVID19 in November with only mild symptoms (positive test on 11-23-20; no fever or cough, just felt tired for a couple days).

He had a minor injury to one eye shortly before the vaccination (scratched with hand), but after the shot, he complained of vision problems in both eyes. Redness, dryness, pressure, uncomfortable. Unable to concentrate and stay reading for more than a few minutes at a time. His primary doctor is now treating with antibiotic drops, but will take him to the eye doctor if he does not get better by Thursday as he will be done with the eye drops. We have also added allergy medicine, which seems to help a little. He is due for his second shot on 4/29. I still need him to get the shot to be protected from Covid, so hopefully, he will be better.

extreme hallucinations; not feeling well; chills; aches and pains; headaches; slight numbness in his extremities; difficulty walking; he did not get much sleep; fever; This is a spontaneous report from contactable consumer (parent). An 18-year-old male patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE), dose 2 via an unspecified route of administration, administered in left arm on 23Apr2021 at 12:45 (Lot Number: Ew0153) at the age of 18 years, as a single dose for COVID-19 immunization. Medical history included autism spectrum disorder, ADHD (Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) combined, learning disabilities. The patient had no known allergies. Prior to the vaccination, the patient was not diagnosed with COVID-19. Concomitant medication taken within two weeks of vaccination included alfetamine aspartate/alfetamine sulfate/dexamphetamine saccharate/dexamphetamine sulfate (ADDERALL) taken for an unspecified indication. Historical vaccine included BNT162B2, dose 1 in left arm, on 02Apr2021, lot # EK5730. The patient did not receive any other vaccines within four weeks prior to the vaccination. On 23Apr2021 at 21:00 the patient experienced extreme hallucinations, not feeling well, chills, aches and pains, headaches, slight numbness in his extremities, difficulty walking, he did not get much sleep, fever. The clinical course of events was reported as follows: My son reported to me at bedtime last night, the night of his second Pfizer vaccine dose, that he was not feeling well. I told him to take some Advil and go to bed. He had a very bad night with chills and aches and pains but most distressing was his description of having had extreme hallucinations. He said that he was aware they were hallucinations and not real during and after the experience, but it was nonetheless concerning. It is also concerning that he didn't wake me for help. At any rate, he did not get much sleep and I have to assume his fever went pretty high before morning. He described to me the need to hydrate during the night. He also relayed to me this morning an experience of headaches and slight numbness in his extremities, difficulty walking, but he is now feeling much better. He is dressed, has eaten, and is playing games on the computer. I am keeping a close eye on him today and should we return to that level of concern, we will take him to urgent care. The clinical outcome of the events was recovering. It was also reported that since the vaccination, the patient had not been tested for COVID-19.

18M with no PMH s/p pfizer vaccination dose 2 on 5/4/21 who presented with chest pain. He initially had chest pain the day prior to admission with pain in his back and down his left arm. This improved with Tylenol and resolved prior to bed. On the morning of 5/6 the chest pain returned and was so severe it woke him from sleep. He was difficult for him to characterize, but he said it was all over his chest, sometimes sharp and pressure-like, most severe in mid substernal region and was so substantial that he had difficulty speaking properly. He feels that the pain is most severe when lying flat and is best managed when he is resting at a 45 degree angle. Patient was at ED he was found to have an initial ECG with ST depressions in aVR and elevations in II, aVF, and V2 through V6 raising suspicion for pericarditis/myocarditis. Initial troponin was elevated at 4.35 as well. Cardiology Dr. was contacted by ED physician, case discussed, and EKGs reviewed and felt this was more likely pericarditis, but not STEMI. Of note, he reports a family history significant for his mother having a?hole in her heart.?He was given Toradol with improvement in his pain and upon arrival to hospital his chest pain was markedly improved. He was noted to have troponins peaking at 39.415 that down trended and an elevated CRP of 4.8 on admission. D-dimer was 0.26. Covid PCR was negative. He was evaluated by cardiology again here who upon review of his ECG and cardiac enzymes as well as presentation was consistent with pericarditis. Echocardiogram showed normal LV systolic function with trace posterior pericardial effusion and telemetry was monitored without any arrhythmias. He was started on low-dose beta-blockers, aspirin 650 mg 3 times a day, and colchicine 0.6 mg every 12 hours for 2 doses followed by 0.6 mg daily. He is planned to continue this for approximately 3 months and will need to follow-up with cardiology in 1 to 2 weeks for repeat monitoring and management with plan to taper off aspirin once his CRP normalizes. Later that night, he even had a similar episode of sudden onset chest pain for which she received IV Toradol with minimal relief and oral Tylenol with relief of symptoms after that. No telemetry abnormalities were recorded at that time. ECG the following day showed improving ST changes and troponin of 26.328 with CRP 4.2. He had no further symptoms for over 24 hours and is responding well to treatment. He is advised to take Tylenol as needed in addition to the above-mentioned medicines should he have any recurrent chest pain.

symptoms began as blurry vision, extreme light sensitivity (couldn't open eyes because of pain), and severe headache. He also had what looked like a red rash or blood bruise on both eyelids. The symptoms got increasingly worse and his vision became completely blurry and he was unable to focus his eyes and his photosensitivity so severe that he had to be in a dark room, even when his eyes were closed. His headache increased. We initially went to an urgent care clinic where they ran bloodwork, and then we were sent to an eye specialist for a thorough exam, which was excruciating for him to sit through on account of having to examine his eyes open and with light. After a few hours at the eye specialist we went home and he went to bed, unable to sleep because of his extreme headache. The symptoms lasted the following day, and the day after with loss of visual focus, extreme headache, and the rash on his eyelids appeared to had gotten a bit worse. I would say that Saturday evening his eyesight began getting gradually better (vaccine on Wednesday evening). His headache and aversion to sound continued. Over the next week his vision began gradually getting better, different eyes at different rates, as well as his headache. He still has the rash on his eyelids.

At 2-8-21 at approximately 1:00pm I recieved my 2nd shot. At 5:00am on 2-9-21, I woke up experiencing an extreme headache, nausea, body aches, and severe chest pain. I checked my heartrate with a PulseOximeter and found it to be elevated at 105-115. I called out of work and rested in bed for the day. On 2-10-21 most of my symptoms had subsided however the chest pain persisted through 2-11-21. On 2-11-21 at 2:00pm, I visited the Urgent Care. While there, the provider ran an ECG, Chest X-Ray, and bloodwork. Test results showed Troponin levels in my blood had reached critical levels of 7.72ng/ml. I was immediately transported to the ER at the Hospital, where upon arrival they did an EKG and bloodwork. I was then admitted and seen by a cardiologist, who ordered an CT Angiogram, more bloodwork, and an Echocardiogram. After I was admitted, my mother contact the nurses station to check on me and asked what was wrong. She was then told the hospital was treating me for an NSTEMI and Myocarditis. This resulted in a 3 day hospital stay where the results of the tests showed there was nothing wrong with my heart other than the increased Troponin levels. It should be noted that I have had ZERO previous cardiac issues, or any other significant health issues. I was discharged from the hospital with lower but still elevated Troponin levels, and told to follow up with my primary care doctor. I had no health issues and felt fine until I had my second dose of the Covid-19 vaccine. I have copies of my hospital records detailing all of this.

Around 10:30 PM, I experienced serious chills and generally felt like I had a fever. These symptoms worsened into the night, as did the fever (measured at 102 degrees F, possibly higher at the peak). I also experienced a headache, mild nausea, joint (knee) pain, although some symptoms may have been due to dehydration. Despite being very tired, I was unable to really fall asleep. At around 6 AM the fever finally dropped substantially, and as of 8:30 AM is currently only 99.4 degrees. I am still experiencing a bit of a headache as well, but the other symptoms are gone.

severe dehydration; severe dehydration; thirst; could not sleep at night/ lack of sleep/ sleep interrupted; she had never heard him so anxious or disturbed that he could not get relief; she had never heard him so anxious or disturbed that he could not get relief; This is a spontaneous report received from a contactable consumer (medical technologist). A 19-year-old male patient (reporter's grandson) received BNT61B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, lot number not reported), on 04Mar2021 (at the age of 19-year-old) as 1st dose, single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Vaccine was not administered at military facility. The patient's medical history included diabetic (since 1 years old, he was diagnosed 1 week after getting the measles/mumps/rubella (MMR) vaccine), dehydrated and rapid heartbeat (patient once before got dehydrated on the Hiking Trail with a rapid heartbeat). The patient's concomitant medications included insulin for diabetic. The patient previously received measles/mumps/rubella (MMR) vaccine. The reporter (caller) mentioned that his grandson got the 1st dose of the vaccine on 04Mar2021. Several hours later (04Mar2021), he experienced severe dehydration and thirst and could not sleep at night. He was very very uncomfortable and usually did not complain regarding experiences. He was young and going to college and he was living on his own. He was also diabetic. She was worried about his safety regarding his intake of the 2nd dose, so she was wondering if this had been reported and for any recommendations before and after getting the 2nd dose. They were consulting with his endocrinologist and the nurse at the endocrinologist's clinic said that they recommend young diabetic people to drink tons of water when getting the vaccine. Caller mentioned that she herself got the Pfizer vaccine and had no problem with it. Caller mentioned that his Grandson was diabetic since 1 years old. He was diagnosed 1 week after getting the MMR vaccine. She also mentioned that his grandson just recently got in college and he was in the younger side of the spectrum. Caller is asking if there is any data that would include her grandson's conditions in the clinical trials. Caller stated she was calling about the Pfizer COVID Vaccine and stated her grandson who was the patient was the one who received his first dose of the vaccine on 04Mar2021 and that day he received the vaccine he told her that starting in the evening that same day (04Mar2021) she had never heard him so anxious or disturbed that he could not get relief and the adverse reaction he had was severe dehydration and thirst and it was giving him a fit. Caller stated she thinks he was probably 5'10'' in height or so and thinks he weighed around and between 175-180 pounds when she last asked him. Caller stated she was not an HCP but was a medical technologist calling on behalf of the patient and because she was a medical technologist, she is medically trained. Caller stated she had not been able to get back in touch with the patient to get all the details for the report before she called around to get help but also stated the patient had his sleep interrupted after the vaccine was administered and he could not sleep but thinks this is all resolved and must have been resolved but she couldn't say for certain how long that he could not sleep or how long the severe dehydration or thirst lasted but she can find out. Caller stated the patient had not yet had the 2nd dose of the Pfizer COVID Vaccine and had his patient card and stated she did not have the lot, expiry date or NDC for the first dose. Caller stated for the indication for which the patient was administered the COVID vaccine, she thought because the patient was diabetic and the HCP was very anxious for him to have defense against COVID and against all various types of virus or the school may have required it but she was not sure; states it was for the patient's own safety that his endocrinologist wanted him to have the vaccine. Caller stated that the patient did not have treatment for the reported event and he did not say to her that he had any treatment; caller stated she doubted the infirmary at his school is even open at the University and she did not know whether the patient would go to the infirmary or not. Caller stated she was calling to find out of there have been any reports or feedback on this reaction that the patient had or the adverse situation the patient had several hours after receiving the Pfizer COVID Vaccine; states specifically for the severe dehydration and thirst the patient experienced after being administered the Pfizer COVID Vaccine. Caller stated the patient was due to get his 2nd dose of the Pfizer COVID vaccine three weeks from 04Mar2021 and she was most anxious to find out what recommendations were given or if Pfizer heard complaints about other adverse events like the ones she was reporting on the patient. Caller stated the patient once before got dehydrated on the Hiking Trail with a rapid heartbeat and he was with his father at that time; no further details provided by the caller. Caller stated the patient reported this to her in conversation a day or so after he had the Pfizer COVID Vaccine and she is medically trained and it has been a long time since she used that medical training but the patient is diabetic since the age of 1 and he had good care and has been under the care of the hospital endocrinologist and his HCP since he was found to have diabetes and he uses his insulin pump very well. Caller stated the patient was off to college where very few were attending college and the patient had a very undesirable evening after the vaccine of lack of sleep and he was so thirsty and could not get hydrated and she knows dehydration is bad for anybody even if they aren't diabetic or if they have a life threatening type of illness but the patient was at school and did not have a family member to help take care of him and he was due for his 2nd shot three weeks from 04Mar2021. Caller stated she was trying to find out the best route for him to go report this and she told him to report the reaction to the HCP and to call the HCP who prescribed the vaccine; stated the patient's endocrinologist was not able to get in touch with the patient and he was not answering the phone; stated the patient is at college and he was on online courses. Caller stated she was very anxious to find out enough information about this and it is a concern to his treating physician and she was asking about recommendations about the patient not having his 2nd dose of the Pfizer COVID Vaccine; stated she spoke with the nurse that works with the endocrinologist for all of these 18 years they have cared for the patient. Caller states the HCP's nurse stated she had found that patients that receive the vaccine and have diabetes and are treated at the hospital they recommend that those patients drink tons and tons of water before having the vaccine because some types of people with diabetes have extreme thirst. Caller stated she had no vaccine names, patient information or lot number or other information to provide on the patients that had the vaccine and have diabetes. Caller stated she spoke at the HCP office and stated there was no need for secrecy and HIPPA was not in Pfizer's domain; stated she cannot depend on the patient to look out for his own safety and she as a medical technologist used to give patients ordered glucose tolerance tests and she knew of the reactions that occurred with those patients and she did not want the patient to be stuck and wanted for him to do the smart thing of spending the night at home rather than drive back. Caller stated for those patients she administered glucose tests to she had no patient information or lot numbers or other information to provide and it was years ago before the Pfizer COVID vaccine came out. Caller stated she worked trying to get patient's diabetes under control at the University where she worked. Caller stated she already called and waited for organization but did not speak to anyone and left them a number to call her back a couple of days ago but she had not heard back; stated there were 18 people in the phone queue before her and she was hoping not to have to wait again. Caller stated her grandson probably does not had the time to wait on the phone being at college and he needed to do what he needed to do to be safe. Caller stated she had only spoken with the endocrinologist who treats the patient in his hometown and reported this information to the HCP's nurse and they are pretty good with follow up with patients. Caller stated she did not think the patient had other health issues and he actually had done extremely well on his insulin pump and had been on the insulin pump since about 3 years of age; stated she had no name of the insulin, had no lot numbers or further information. The events did not require emergency room or physician office visit. The outcome of the events was unknown. No follow-up attempts are needed; information about lot/batch number cannot be obtained.

neurological symptoms such as anxiety and depression; neurological symptoms such as anxiety and depression; flu like symptoms; fevers; chills; diarrhea; chest pain; shakiness; This is a spontaneous report received from a contactable The reporter. This The reporter reported for a 20-year-old male patient (Reporter's son) via medical information team. A 20-years-old male patient received bnt162b2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 mRNA VACCINE, Formulation: Solution for injection, Lot Number: Unknown), via an unspecified route of administration on 14May2021 (20-year-old at the time of vaccination) as 1st dose, single dose for COVID-19 immunisation. Medical history included illness from an unknown date and unknown if ongoing. He has been to the doctor for sick visits 20 times in 20 years. The reporter also stated that there are no mental health issues noted in their family history. The reporter also stated that the patient was overall healthy with no significant medical history in the past. The patient's concomitant medications were not reported. The reporter reported that patient received the first dose of the Pfizer COVID 19 vaccine on Saturday and by Monday was having flu like symptoms, fevers, chills, diarrhoea, chest pain, shakiness, as well as other neurological symptoms such as anxiety and depression. He has been to the doctor for sick visits 20 times in 20 years. After receiving the COVID 19 vaccines, the patient has been seen by the doctor 3 times in one week. The patient's side effects have lasted 3-4 weeks. The reporter would like to know commonly reported side effects of the vaccine and their duration. The reporter would like to know the efficacy of only one dose of the Pfizer COVID 19 vaccine as the patient was hesitant to get the 2nd dose due to the side effects noted from the 1st vaccine. The reporter was advised per "attached" dose for efficacy after one dose. The reporter was not satisfied with this data and wanted to know more about what she had been read about online. The reporter was advised caller agent as could do some more research and contact her back with possible additional data which caller agreed to doing. Upon call back on 14Jun2021, advised caller per (website "PRIVACY") from 10Dec2020. The cumulative incidence of COVID-19 cases over time among placebo and vaccine recipients began to diverge by 12 days after the first dose, and 52.4% vaccine efficacy (95% confidence interval: 29.5, 68.4) was observed between dose 1 and dose 2, indicating the early onset of a partially protective effect of immunization. Two doses of vaccine provide the maximum protection observed. Ten cases of severe COVID-19 were observed with onset after the first dose. Nine cases occurred among placebo recipients and one among BNT162b2 recipients. The reporter would like to know dosing interval between shot one and two. Patient had their 1st dose on 14May2021 and has not received the 2nd dose yet due to side effects from what they felt was caused by the 1st dose of Pfizer COVID 19 vaccine. The reporter received response as "you should not get the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine if you had a severe allergic reaction after a previous dose of the vaccine or if you had a severe allergic reaction to any ingredient of the vaccine. The decision to receive the second dose for any other reason cannot be made by Pfizer. We refer you to speak to your healthcare provider about the risks of the vaccine compared to the risks of potentially not being fully protected against COVID-19 infection. Your healthcare provider knows your health situation and has access to information that can better help inform this decision". The reporter wanted to know should the patient get the 2nd dose of the Pfizer COVID 19 vaccine after the reported side effects of flu like symptoms, fevers, chills, diarrhoea, chest pain, shakiness, as well as other neurological symptoms such as anxiety and depression. The reporter received response as do not administer Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine to individuals with known history of a severe allergic reaction (e.g., anaphylaxis) to any component of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine. The outcome of the events was resolved in 2021 Follow-up attempts are needed. Information about lot/batch number has been requested

Felt anxious about the shot and got it at 10:48, started feeling dizzy at around 10:55 during the 10 minute waiting period, then started to black out and I immediately told the nurse who's quick actions prevented me from fully fainting (laying me down and giving me food/water and elevating my legs). Blood pressure was fine she said along with O2 levels. Left around 11:25 after I felt able to. We both think this was likely related to the anxiety about getting the shot itself (I have anxiety in general so it was not paired with a mistrust or anything about the vaccine) and began fainting 7 minutes after getting the vaccine. I was anxious about any possible symptoms and needles/shots/blood draws make me feel uneasy. However, this issue was not present with the first shot.

He was seen in a emergency department on 4/26 and reported a normal EKG, blood work, and x-ray. He was discharged home. His was worsened so he reported to an urgent care in . That team had a concern for pericarditis, so referred the patient to the emergency room. He had a reproducible pain over the costal margin but did describe a positional component.

The suspicion also for myocarditis was low. His EKG did show some J-point elevation versus ST elevation in the anterior and lateral leads. There was no evidence of reciprocal depression. His troponin test was normal. His CBC and metabolic panel were normal. He had had CRP which was mildly elevated at 4.6.

It was recommend he follow closely with his PCP to see if he needs to have this colchicine course extended. He will follow-up with his primary doctor in 1 week for repeat check.

About 6 hours post injection, with only a small amount of muscle soreness in the injected arm, I was suddenly very very dizzy. I ran from my living room to my bedroom and got under the sheets, I was very very cold. My whole body was twitching violently, and I had extreme muscle pain. Joints popped like knuckles cracking that I wouldn't normally be able to pop. This lasted for about 10 minutes very violently and then calmed down over another 10, and I just felt very very feverish. I felt numb all over but I was shivering a little. Moving was very hard and my whole back was very sore, with the injection arm in a little extra pain. Fell asleep until about 7:30 am, woke up still a little feverish. I have had waves of extreme dizziness and muscle aches continuing even to today a couple days later. I am also experiencing a rather persistent headache in the very center of my head, making it hard to think. I lose track of my thoughts and it feels like I can't focus, this seems to be improving gradually over time. treatment only included extra fluid intake and over the counter pain killers

This was concerning since I run at least 30 miles a week. Early the next morning, I woke up with my heart racing and shortness of breath. This persisted for a couple of hours. I woke up with a stiff chest, pain and aches around my body, and struggling to breathe. I went to urgent care and they did an EKG on me that came out abnormal. They referred me to a cardiologist where I got an appointment the next day. The cardiologist runs another ekg this time it?s worse. She sends me straight to the ER.

My first dose of the pfizer vaccine was relatively asymptomatic. Received at local hospital. Sore arm that lasted a few hours, nothing too concerning. This adverse event describes my second dose however, received Jan 23, 2020, approximately 3 weeks after the first. Again, this was received at local hospital. The next day, I felt the expected side effects of terrible chills, whole-body myalgia, and a slight fever. Again, I was not too worried as this was expected. I could not sleep that night, but otherwise, I felt significantly better in the morning. Unfortunately, on Jan 25, 2 days after the second dose, I began to feel a strange tingling sensation in my forearms, and a pain in my lower back. This paresthesia felt as if the insides of my arms were vibrating, and rather than a "pins and needles" sensation, I felt electric shocks through my forearms and extremely discomforting tingles. I could not bend forward without terrible shocks through my arms, and my back pain can only be described as aching. I immediately scheduled an appointment with my doctor for Monday afternoon, That entire Sunday, it felt as if the tingling sensation, rated at 7/10 discomfort, grew to 10/10. I physically was wincing and turning, unable to find any position where my arms were not experiencing electric vibrations. My back pain, which was tender to touch, and if I pressed hard enough on it or laid on my back, caused the same electric sensation not just in the forearms but the entirety of my upper torso and my arm. Taking deep breaths was painful, as it elicited the same discomforting paresthesia. At the time, I was one of the first groups taking the pfizer shots, and it was still unclear if taking NSAIDs was a good idea to alleviate pains and the suppress the immune response. I agonized that entire Sunday and through Monday morning, the shocking expanding from just the forearms to the shoulders around the deltoid, and the back pain soon covered my entire upper torso. For whatever reason, waist-down I was completely fine. Even bending forward only elicited the pain upwards, nothing ever went down my legs. I had slight neck stiffness, a throbbing headache, intense back aches, bilateral upper extremity paresthesia, and pain on deep inspiration at the height of my pain on Monday morning. By this point, the pain had kept me awake for almost 30 hours. When I finally could see my doctor via telehealth appointment, he prescribed me 800 mg ibuprofen to be taken every 6-8 hours I believe. After taking the ibuprofen, the pain lessened significantly, going from 10/10 to 2/10. I was finally able to go to sleep sitting up straight on a sofa chair. The paresthesia was gone, the pain on deep inspiration was gone, but the tenderness and dull ache in the lower back seemed to stay even on the ibuprofen. I noticed that if I laid down on my back to try and sleep, even with the medicine in full effect, the electric shooting and paresthesia would immediately return. If I quickly removed pressure from that area, it went away. The ibuprofen's effect lasted only about 5 hours. I would take another as it slowly crawled back up to 4/10 pain or if the paresthesia was returning. Over the course of an entire week, I constantly needed to be on ibuprofen. By Friday, so almost 6 days after the shot, the paresthesia and back pain could be completely suppressed by the ibuprofen and I was able to lay on my back with no problems. Without medicine, I was sitting at a dull 3-10 back pain, but the paresthesia was gone. The back pain finally vanished on Sunday, 8 days after the shot, and I no longer needed ibuprofen. No fevers, chills, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, radiation of electrical pain down the leg, vision change, or loss of bowel/urinary control throughout the course of these symptoms. My experience reported to my primary care doctor, via our health messages. I did not return any contact to hospital or my vaccination site.

I am healthy 23 year old male. I have never suffered from any sort of illness or conditions. After massive push by the goverment and incentivization to take the New Covid-19 Vaccines deemed safe , I went ahead and received the Pfizer shot on 05/24/2021. A day after I felt headache and dizziness. This stopped on the third day. Later I would have episodes of blurred vision. That stopped. But what has really affected me and continues to affect me , is that a week after I have developed major difficulty breathing. I never , ever not even once in my life have suffered from breathing problems. It all started on an afternoon a week after the shot randomly with really fast heart palpitations and after those palpitations stopped I was choking, I could not breathe at all. After this , I am having trouble breathing normally or getting enough air in along with tightness in the chest area. For instance, I struggle with two breaths and then the third I will likely get more air in. I have felt incredible tightness in my chest. There has been nights where I cannot sleep because I am unable to breathe , and feel like I am choking. So , I need to get up and walk around the house to catch my breath. I am having shortness of breath and my breathing is not like it used to be. I do not have any fever or any other symptoms , the persisting problem is the tightness and difficulty breathing. I already went to the Pulmonary doctor a couple days ago and underwent testing that are pending. I do not understand why this happened to me , I am not sure if it is a coincidence or if there is a relation between me having taken that Pfizer shot . But prior to taking that vaccine I never once had trouble with my breathing and never felt tightness around my chest. This is new to me and it scares me to think this might stay with me forever, whatever it is. I pray it goes away. I am still having trouble . and the fact that in the past I never thought about my breathing because it was normal, and now it is a constant issue throughout the day, moments when I can get air and others when it is very difficult. I am reporting this to leave a record of this incident because prior to me taking this vaccine , I was in fact a fully healthy person free of any sort of health issues.

A little over two days after my first COVID vaccine, I started experiencing racing thoughts and feelings of heightened anxiety, franticness, panic, agitation and overwhelm. The severity of these symptoms would fluctuate, but they have been present most of the time since then. They made it very difficult to complete my semester at school. A week prior my long-term girlfriend effectively broke up with me, and I had been taking two herbs, Wort and rhodiola, the former for a month and the latter for two weeks at the beginning of symptoms, which I later found out can significantly influence brain chemistry and even induce mania in some individuals. Thus, it seems likely that a combination of these and other factors could have caused the symptoms I am now experiencing, and this is the opinion of the psychiatrist I am currently seeing (listed under doctor to contact). However, given the close timing of my vaccination and subsequent onset of symptoms, I have been worried about whether it could have played a role and wanted to report it. In the past couple weeks the psychiatrist has prescribed me with hydroxizine to help me sleep and GABA to help calm my mind, and they have helped a bit, but I still do not feel like myself.

24-year-old male with no prior medical problems presents for evaluation of chest pain. Patient complains of midsternal chest pain that started approximately an hour ago. He states that it woke him up from sleep. Pain is sharp without any radiation or other associated symptoms including diaphoresis presyncopal symptoms or palpitations. He denies any significant air hunger or shortness of breath. He otherwise had been feeling better after what he tall was post COVID vaccine symptoms. Patient received a 2nd dose of pfizer vaccine 3 days ago. He states that within 24 hours he had symptoms of myalgia fever and feeling unwell. That has been resolving patient has been feeling better until the chest pain today. Patient otherwise denies any other medical problems in. He denies any history of drug use including any recent cocaine or other drug abuse. Elevated cardiac enzymes and chest discomfort are likely secondary to myocarditis and secondary to vaccination/ inflammatory reaction. Although there is low likelihood of obstructive coronary artery disease as well. I recommended cardiac catheterization for clarification. He does not want to have the procedure done, understands the risk of undiagnosed coronary artery disease and risk of MI. He would like to be discharged home. I reviewed the images of echocardiogram and it seems that he has a small area of hypokinesis in infero basal segment. Recommended to take aspirin and be seen in Cardiology office in 2 weeks. Advised to abstain from exercise and significant physical activity till that time and return to the hospital if any symptoms. Subjective: I saw patient in consultation for evaluation of chest pain and elevated cardiac enzymes. Patient is a 24-year-old healthy male who had COVID-19 vaccination with his second Pfizer shot 4/14/21. He developed fever, chills, nausea and vomiting 1 day after vaccination. He did not have any reaction to the 1st dose. He presented to the hospital with substernal chest discomfort which woke him up from sleep, radiated to throat and had a throbbing feeling. This lasted for 1 to 2 hours and subsided completely in the hospital. He smokes 5 cigarettes a day, is physically very active and exercises regularly. He is not on any medication at home.

Felt sick/slightly feverish 12 hours after shot, hard to sleep. Day after shot was mostly normal, though a little under the weather. After another day, all cold symptoms were gone. Tinnitus in the right ear started 3 days after 2nd Pfizer COVID shot. Initially was only audible at night, when sleeping in a quiet room, but after 2 days became audible during day. Tinnitus presented as a high pitched steady ringing in the ear. Triggered intense anxiety and perception of the tinnitus increased to almost debilitating levels. Mental health counseling and prescription of daily amitriptyline to help with sleep and lorazepam to take as needed for anxiety has helped cope with tinnitus and associated mental aspects. Ringing still persists after almost four weeks after it started, but is perceived to be less loud now.

Chest pain issues have resolved mostly. The most debilitating thing to come after the vaccine was the onset of ringing, buzzing persistently in left ear, comes and goes in right ear. Started 2 weeks and 2 days after second dose of Pfizer vaccine, and after flying multiple times and started when I got back on the 13th of April 2021. It has remained constant but has improved slightly from where it was in the beginning, have been doing Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (five 1 hour sessions, spaced about a week-week and a half apart over the last 2 months to see if things improve). Things I would say have improved but I am running out of patience and financial means to keep going to a doctor. I feel helpless, depressional, work performance is awful, and lastly very suicidal than I have ever been. Just want to die.

On December 16th, I received my 1st dose of the COVID-19 Pfizer vaccine at 11:49am. I was off of work for the remainder of the day and driving to an appointment at a different town. Between towns, during the drive fatigue settled in and I started to get drowsy. I switched seats and fell asleep for some time in the vehicle. I had fatigue for about 3-4 weeks following the 1st dose. On December 23rd, my symptoms started to get worse. Headaches increased, muscle pain/aches, chills, fatigue and this was the first day I had a temp of 100.4. I took some Tylenol and it made it bearable for me to continue to work throughout the day. From 12/20-26/2020, I kept feeling like I had a cold or the flu. Through the Holiday, I remained in bed and didn't have energy to do anything. I still had all the symptoms and decided on December 28th to call into work and get seen for a Telehealth. Some lab work were done and test results came back. I'm still working with my provider on figuring out what's going on with me.

Severe apneic episodes with sleep. I have no history of sleep apnea, BMI of 24, exercise regularly, no known snoring. The night after my first dose at around 23:00 while falling asleep I shortly after having been asleep would wake up gasping for air. Attempting to fall back asleep I felt the need to consciously make myself breathe, and when I would fall asleep no more than 5-10 after I would wake up gasping for air. This continued on until around close to 03:00 on 1/7/21. When I finally fell asleep around 03:00 woke up gasping for air around 04:45 and never fell back asleep. The next two nights, 1/7/21 and 1/8/21 I would have trouble falling asleep because these same apneic episodes were happening until around 03:00. The night of 1/9/21 I had no issues sleeping, and have had no apnea since those three nights. These apneic episodes were followed by extreme anxiety from being unable to sleep fully (I worried moreso about not falling asleep than the apnea). Heart rate when counted ranged for 70s-80s and my normal HR while sleeping is around low 50s.

The fatigue gradually increased throughout the day. I attempted to go to bed around 11:00pm and I was so cold my entire body was shivering to a point where my whole body was shaking. I also began noticing muscle cramps throughout my body as well, primarily located in my calves.

Subjective: 25 yrs old presents with fever, chills, and malaise x 24 hours after receiving a first dose of COVID vaccine yesterday and an MMR booster on the day before. He states he has not had a COVID infection to his knowledge, despite working on the COVID unit at the clinic. Member admits to nausea, fever, chills, hallucination, and malaise. Denies HA, cp, sob, abdominal pain, diarrhea, dysuria, or LE swelling. A/P: 1. Adverse effect of other viral vaccines, initial encounter Plan/Comment(s): - 25 yo presents with what is likely a normal adverse reaction in a patient that has been exposed or infected by Coronavirus 19 in the past. He likely contracted the virus while working 2 months on the COVID ward at Clinic, which would be considered an asymptomatic infection. He denies having symptoms of COVID. While he did have an MMR booster the day before receiving the COVID vaccine dose #1, it was my opinion that because of his age and health status at the time of the screening, he was clear to receive the first dose of the COVID vaccine. I did consider possibility of cytokine storm, having been given two vaccines in such close intervals, but again he is young, healthy, and denied having COVID infection in the past, and he did not exhibit any adverse reactions to the MMR booster. I anticipate his condition will be self-limiting and the SM will return to full duty in 48 hours. Reference: 11) Have you received any vaccine in the past 14 days or plan to receive any vaccine in the next 14 days? Currently there is no data on safety or efficacy of a COVID-19 vaccine administered with other vaccines, however, the agency recommends that COVID-19 vaccines be administered alone with a minimum interval of 14 days before or after administration with any other vaccines. Vaccines required for post-exposure prophylaxis (e.g., rabies vaccine) may be administered within the 14-day period. ***************Additionally, providers and patients can consider other vaccines, including the influenza vaccine, within the 14-day window on a case-by-case basis with shared clinical decision-making for Health Protection and other important co-administration vaccination needs.************ - will Rx Zofran - will Rx Tylenol - will Rx Motrin - SIQ 48 hours - Patient counseled on dx, tx, and plan; pt understands and concurs

Around 6 pm the same day of first pfizer vaccine (3/18/21), i woke up from a nap and my back hurt so bad that i couldn't leave the bed without falling out. My parents came and helped me out and gave me painkillers but really nothing helped. Next day, it started down my right arm (the arm NOT injected with the shot) and it started to hurt in my muscles everywhere and hasn't stopped to this day (3/25/21). Numbness and pins and needles feeling have occurred in my pinky and ring finger of right arm. Pain has now started in my knees as well after a few days from the shot. No pain killers work and I'm unable to write or type properly, or even work at my job frankly. I can't hold an object without it falling out of my hand, and when i am able to hold something, after about 2 seconds pain fills my arm. Nothing helps the pain. I saw my primary care physician on 3/25/21 and the PA said there wasn't anything to do for the intense pain i was having except take tylenol arthritis, melatonin (to help me sleep through the pain), exercise (even though it may cause me even worse pain), and a stress ball for my arm. I don't know what else to do with this pain and this was only the first round of shots.

9 hours after the shot I started to feel really groggy and sore with my left arm hurting. 12 hours in I started to feel like I had a fever so i checked it and it was 102 degree F, I was also unable to pick my left arm up due to the pain and my whole body hurt a lot. 13 hours in at about 10 pm that night I started full-body shaking violently and needed help from my parents into my room because I could not walk because my legs were wobbling so much. I felt lightheaded and the shaking continued for about 20 minutes. During this time I checked my temp again and it was 105 degrees F. Once the shaking stopped the fever and intense pain continued until 2 am when it dropped down to 102 degrees F and I was able to fall asleep. The next morning I woke at 8am with a temp of 100 degree F with the same all-over-body pain that lasted all day but the fever dropped until that night. That night it came back at 100 degrees F. This cycle lasted from when I got my shot on the 1st until 4th when the fever stopped. The pain has subsided around the 6th. But I am currently still having pain in my left shoulder where I got my shot today on the 8th.

He became very confused about time, went into the bathroom to brush his teeth 2 days after his 1st Pfizer shot and would not stop brushing his teeth for 30 hours. His parents tried to get him to stop several times. He only stopped because his parents finally called 911 to have someone help remove him from the bathroom. His gums were bleeding and he was limping a bit from standing at the sink brushing his teeth for so long. He was taken to the ER, his vitals looked good overall but he was dehydrated. Hospital could not explain why he did that, what was happening inside his brain. He could also not explain why he did that when asked. Very upsetting for his parents and siblings who felt they had no control over stopping him. It was mentioned he might need a neurological specialist. He improved once home. Seems he got very confused about time, did not understand how long he had been brushing his teeth and could not be reasoned with. He mentioned in the car on the way home from the ER with his dad that he still needed to brush his teeth once home. This scared his dad and his dad took him to go eat a meal outside of the home and that seemed to break up the time loop in patient's head. When they returned home patient no longer tried to brush his teeth for a long period of time.

I know because I am experiencing it, and you've ruined the last 24 days of my life. Thank you.

throat fell really tight. They told him was throat was closing up.; Anaphylaxis/anaphylactic shock/severe allergic reaction; Swelling of the throat/throat was swelling; Trouble breathing; Itchy throat; Said that his throat felt really thirsty.; He is very upset./He is pretty devastated.; His throat started to do it again.; They said maybe it was something he ate or maybe sinuses; This is spontaneous report from contactable consumer (patient) and contactable consumer (patient's mother). A 25-year-old male patient received the first dose for BNT162B2 (PFIZER-BIONTECH COVID-19 VACCINE, Lot No. EWO187) at single dose for COVID-19 immunization on 19May2021 at 12:00 or 13:00. Relevant history included Diabetes, obesity, endocrine abnormalities, genetic/chromosomal abnormalities, respiratory illness, compromised immune status and Allergies. The patient had Allergies to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs that can induce anaphylactic shock, severe reaction, swelling of face and throat. Relevant concomitant drug was unknown. No history of all previous immunization with the Pfizer vaccine considered as suspect. No Additional Vaccines were Administered on Same Date of the Pfizer Suspect If applicable. No Vaccines were Administered prior vaccinations (within 4 weeks). Family Medical History was none. About 3-5 minutes after being administered the Vaccine, the patient immediately developed anaphylactic shock. He was transported via ambulance to the Emergency Room on 19May2021 where he verified he was admitted to the hospital Emergency room for about 5-6 hours and discharged from the hospital the same day, 19May2021. He was told not to get any additional doses. He was still having swelling of the throat and went back to the ER today and was given a steroid prednisone 40mg a day for 5 days. He was advised to take benadryl also. He said he didn't get any IVs or anything. He had a past medical history of anaphylactic reaction to NSAIDS. He has been advised not to get the second dose. The patient stated the anaphylactic shock occurred with trouble breathing, throat was swelling and itchy throat. He did go into ER, they told him to just keep drinking fluids, that there was nothing else they could really do. When he was seen in the emergency room they gave him Benadryl and a steroid: Prednisone for now which he is on for the next couple of days. He was told that after 2 days or something, that after getting injected that he wouldn't have any symptoms-but he is still having those pretty severe symptoms of anaphylactic shock. Initial onset of anaphylactic shock was about 3-5 minutes after Pfizer Covid Vaccine shot was administered. Within 10-15 minutes he had swelling of tongue and throat and difficulty breathing. They called an ambulance, the ambulance took him to the Hospital emergency room where he was admitted and discharged that same date on 19May2021 after about 5-6 hours; he reported discharge time was around 16:40. They told him to come back if he had any issues that occurred over next couple of days or worsening or causing problems; to call back the nurses line. He was on a lot of Benadryl, a lot of antihistamines. When he gets off the antihistamines almost all the allergic reactions of the anaphylactic shock reoccur. This morning, 21May2021, he didn't take any Bendaryl before bed, and this morning when he woke up he was alright. After being at work like 30 minutes he felt the itchiness; scratchy throat; swelling of tongue; a little swelling of the throat; difficulty breathing. He took Benadryl and called the hotline who told him to call the Emergency room, he called the emergency room and went there. He talked to them this morning because he went to work and had issues breathing. He called and they told him to come in asap, so he went in to the emergency room; they gave him Benadryl and told him there was nothing else they could do other than him taking the steroid: Prednisone. The patient was in the hospital 3 days and will be day 4 tomorrow. He was trying to figure out how long this will last. They told him to talk to his doctor. They basically told him they were not responsible. The patient's mother reported that her son received the shot Wed 19May2021. Does not know if the Walgreen's reported this. He left there in an ambulance within 10 minutes of getting the shot. They took him to the emergency room and he got mixed information. He went back again today. They blew him off and told him maybe it was something he ate. She assumed that an allergic reaction would be about 24 hours but this is day 3. She is scared he may be taking too much Benadryl. He said he felt like he needed something to drink. Said that his throat felt really thirsty. He went back inside since his throat fell really tight. They told him was throat was closing up. They saw that his throat was swollen and they called the paramedics. Within 15 minutes they came and brought him to the emergency room. Nobody had given him Epi. They were going to give it to him an Epi pen but he wanted to wait for the paramedics. He was freaking out. The paramedics showed up and they were unable to give him Epi, stating he didn't have hives. He only received Benadryl. They he had to have to give him extra Benadryl because whatever they gave him in the IV because the first didn't work and his throat was still closing up. It made him feel like a drug addict asking for Benadryl. She was not sure if they gave him Benadryl in the ambulance, knows that it was given in the emergency room. The Benadryl may have been started in the ambulance but she is not sure. They did give him oxygen in the ambulance. Clarified he was in the ER over 4 hours, but was not admitted to the hospital. They gave him steroids but forgot to send him home with steroids. He had to call to find out about getting them and they told him they forgot to send the prescription in. He was late starting the next dose of steroids. He went back to the ER today, day 3. He didn't feel too bad today and went to work. After exerting a little energy and moving around, his throat started to do it again. He didn't have Benadryl on him. He left work because he thought it was going to close up again the day he got the shot. Once he calmed down, he took Benadryl. He called the hospital to ask if this was normal. He was told that it is not normal and was told that if he still felt bad, to come to the hospital. They said maybe it was something he ate or maybe sinuses. He spoke to one of the doctors. They had never shown him how to use an ePi pen. He does not know how long this will last. He gets scared. Treatment: Has only been taking Benadryl. He started the steroids yesterday and today. They had given him Benadryl today in the ER and he is home now. The patient visited to the Emergency room twice, first time by ambulance, confirmed he was not admitted. He was pretty devastated. The outcome of events was unknown.

Immediate reaction of arms tingling and nausea/vomiting. Basic vaccine symptoms the first week including headache, nausea, fever. After about a week, COVID fog/fatigue symptoms began. It is currently 6 weeks later and I have fatigue, shortness of breath, head pressure, double vision, cannot concentrate for any length of time and dizziness/unsteadiness. I have not been able to go to work since the vaccination and have people helping take care of me. I cannot take a shower without being short of breath after. I have been put on 2 different rounds of steroids ? the 2nd more aggressive, which did not make a difference. I have been to my general doctor several times, an allergist and a neurologist. I have had extensive bloodwork, an MRI, and an EKG ? all were normal. My symptoms have not improved at all in the past 3-4 weeks.

Over a month after receiving my second dose of Pfizer, I had an episode of lightheadedness, dizziness, shakiness, and fatigue. I attributed it to dehydration and laid down and ate a snack, I began to feel better after 1-2 hours. A week later I had another lightheadedness incident that sent me back to bed (this one being slightly worse). I experience slight chest pain in my upper right chest muscle. It took me a day to recover from this spell. I constantly felt weak and as if I was about to faint. I went to the doctor two days later and got blood work done and measured my blood pressure. Everything came back normal. On Saturday June 19th, I had another near-fainting experience in a public setting. My hearing changed, I couldn't think straight, I was very shaky and weak, and I tried to drink a lot of water. Nothing helped so I went home and once I got in bed I was aggressively shaking. Since then I have been bed-ridden for the week, and unable to do normal activities such as go for walks, exercise, or go to work. I am going to visit a cardiologist tomorrow.
